Down by the Old Mill Stream Being somewhat older, I remember a song by this same name from another era. It has always conjured up images for me of a spring day and new love. This image was created in Vue d'Esprit, using the Sant Maurici atomosphere and Kromekat's textues for the terrains. Characters Mike, Vicky, Dog, Cat, Mehndi's monarch butterflies and Transpond's Wildflowers were created and posed in Poser 5, exported as .obj files, and then imported into Vue. Since Vue and Poser 5 do not interface, the biggest challenge was getting the textures to work properly in Vue. Poser 5 native materials have to be avoided. The most work involves setting texture transparencies, as the information for these does not export properly. Sam's 3d models used: The old Mill, row boat, slip dock, weathervane, old pump, rocking chair (on the old mill porch). Other models used: clothing from Poser World and improved cat by Daio.
